It's finally out! Star Wars: Battlefront - Anniversary Edition (formerly known as Star Wars: Battlefront Legacy - not to be confused with Battlefront III Legacy) is a large scale mod for the original Star Wars: Battlefront which pulls inspiration from all corners of the franchise, from the original games to DICE's versions and even from the cancelled Star Wars: Battlefront III.

Download it from the ModDB page

If you downloaded this mod prior to the update released on the 19th, you can download the 1.1 patch to fix certain issues here.

Please note that, owing to compatibility issues regarding LUA and the manner in which addons are handled, the Star Wars: Battlefront - Classic Collection version cannot be used to play this mod. This mod is compatible only with CD/DVD, Steam and GOG versions of Star Wars: Battlefront.

==========================
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
==========================

Extract all files.

###IMPORTANT: Backup the original Data/_LVL_PC folder and the addon/Tat3 folder###

Before you begin, please remove Tat3 from your Addon folder as this mod comes with its own version.

Copy everything in this folder into your "Star Wars Battlefront/GameData" folder. If you are asked to replace files, click "Yes" or "OK" (or, in Vista onwards "Copy and Replace").

I'm working on the next patch and update. I'd like to get some opinions on what I should include:

A) Selection of classic mod maps (I have permission from Rends to modify his Coruscant City and Streets)
B) Remaining maps from SWBF2 (Geonosis, Kamino, Kashyyyk, Theed nighttime)
C) Selection of my own custom maps (Scarif, Theed, Invisible Hand)
D) Some combination of the above

Space maps are a ways off, still a lot to work out on that front.
